"I would venture to say if you asked anybody in the state of Virginia: 'Can you name the governor or can you name the head coach of Virginia Tech?' And more likely than not more of them would say they could name the head coach of Virginia Tech as opposed to the governor of the state. I think he is the No.1 celebrity in the state of Virginia. And he's not controversial, like a politician would be or somebody else. He's well respected all across the board. It's really been a home run for us.”

Ryan Boitnott, owner Virginia Gutter, Inc. on Frank Beamer the product pitchman. Beamer is one of the biggest product promoters in Southwest Virginia.

TAH DAMN GOOD CAUSE OF THE MONTH

NORTHERN HAITI HOPE FOUNDATION: After our recent trip to Haiti, we vowed to do more to help. Clean water is a critical issue for all Haitians. It's particularly problematic for those in rural areas. For $2,000 to $5,000 we can build a new well in a rural village as part of a program facilitated by the St. Barthelemy School and the Warrenton, VA Rotary. Send your donation to Wells of Health and Hope, c/o GPetty-VTA, 38 Garrett Street, Warrenton, VA 20186 and keep your eye on T.A.H. for progress reports. Thanks! CLICK ON THE PHOTO FOR MORE INFO.
